Sweet basil ( L.) production is threatened by the oomycete pathogen , causing basil downy mildew (BDM). BDM-resistant cultivar 'Mrihani' (MRI) was identified in a germplasm screen, and bred with BDM-susceptible 'Newton' (SB22) to produce resistant cultivars, but the molecular mechanisms conferring resistance in MRI and the progeny remained unknown.

CRISP2 is enriched in the male reproductive system of mammals and plays roles in spermatogenesis, sperm motility, and fertilization. Although extensively investigated in rodents and boars, human CRISP2 (hCRISP2) remains poorly studied, particularly concerning its localization in testicular and epididymal tissues and its molecular features. In this study, we used immunofluorescence to determine the localization of hCRISP2 in testis, epididymis, and ejaculated sperm.

It is not known if this system level measure is valid across jurisdictions. We compared prescribing rates of medications used for end-of-life symptom relief among LTC residents in Alberta and Ontario.

Lu-rhPSMA-10.1 is a novel radiohybrid prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radiopharmaceutical therapy for prostate cancer. We conducted preclinical analyses on non-tumor-bearing BALB/c mice and on prostate cancer human xenograft mouse models (LNCAP and 22Rv1 xenografts) to evaluate its biodistribution and therapeutic efficacy.
